History lost in svn conversion

[Neil Curzon]

Yes, I have been using hg log --follow.

What happens is this: If I check out the revision directly after the Big
Commit, and do hg log --follow, the only commit that shows in that file's
history is the Big Commit. If I check out the revision immediately before
the Big Commit, do hg log --follow on the file (now at its older location) I
get about 6 revisions that go back to revision 10 or so (I'm pretty sure at
least one of these commits renamed the file in question as well, I can
verify later today).
